Daily Dirt: 
Growing plants in the wind.

Question from Springtown, TX: 
We live on a hill and it is so windy here my seedlings have a hard time with the wind.  They get broken at the stem.  Are there any plants that thrive with high winds? 

A: Look around at the native plants you see growing in the wild there. Plants like cedar elm, eastern red cedar, Texas ash, and live oak should form the structure of your planting. Then fill in with Mexican buckeye, yaupon holly, possumhaw, abelia, agarita and other tough plants that can take the harsh conditions.
